It is going to be a great addition to run our operations from here because the UAE is diversifying its industries and trying to be bold and create opportunities. We are not here only to gain more market share but to create a broader ecosystem where there are more opportunities for all.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile, Bybit said it has received approval to offer a full suite of virtual asset services. The company plans to move its global headquarters along with some staff to Dubai from Singapore. It also plans to hire additional staff locally.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe will be moving a significant portion of staff to Dubai from April as well as hiring local recruitment and talent. Working with regulatory authority here will further strengthen local regulatory framework to share knowledge and expertise.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Bybit CEO Ben Zhou said at the World Government Summit.
